This session will provide an in-depth exploration of the existing persistence features within Kubernetes as well as the Kubernetes Roadmap for Persistence features going forward for the next 6 months. We’ll begin with a tour of Volume Plugins and how they provide direct access to known storage resources and then move onto Persistent Volumes and how they enable users to claim and use storage resources based purely upon their qualities of service. Next we’ll cover storage classes for establishing and classifying various tiers for storage resources and then explore the dynamic provisioning and deletion of storage resources. Lastly, we’ll cover all the features that are in the Kubernetes roadmap such as the ability to increase capacity and create snapshots for existing volumes.
